Strengthen, moisturize and prep your curls for styling with As I Am Restore & Repair Jamaican Black Castor Oil Leave-In Conditioner, a rich yet lightweight no-rinse conditioner designed to improve moisture, detangling and manageability. Jamaican Black Castor Oil provides lipid-rich conditioning that helps soften dry strands, reduce moisture loss and enhance shine, while glycerin and betaine support hydration and help hair maintain flexibility. Ceramide NG, a lipid naturally related to components of the hair's protective structure, provides additional conditioning support to help reinforce the hair surface and improve the feel of dry or fragile strands. Linseed extract and phytosterols provide additional conditioning, while Vitamin C and Vitamin E contribute antioxidant support to the formula. Conditioning ingredients including Behentrimonium Methosulfate and Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine provide slip and reduce friction, making knots and tangles easier to work through before styling. As I Am also incorporates its sub-micron technology, designed to disperse ingredients into smaller particles for more efficient distribution throughout the hair and scalp. After one application, As I Am reports 42% increased hair moisture, 40% easier combing and 49% easier detangling, leaving curls softer, stronger-feeling and better prepared for styling.
How to Use + Best For
Apply a generous amount of As I Am Jamaican Black Castor Oil Leave-In Conditioner to clean, very wet hair and distribute evenly from roots to ends, then comb or finger-detangle through and do not rinse. Follow with your preferred styler, such as As I Am JBCO Curling Cream or JBCO Smoothie, or use a small amount between wash days to refresh dry curls. It is suitable for all hair types, including Type 2 hair, but is especially useful for curly and coily textures experiencing dryness, tangling, fragility or breakage. Based on its combination of humectants, castor oil and Ceramide NG, it can be particularly beneficial for medium-to-high porosity hair, while fine or low-porosity hair should start with a smaller amount to avoid unnecessary weight. As I Am also confirms it is suitable for colour-treated and chemically relaxed hair.
Take Khair Tip: Apply this leave-in while your hair is still very wet—the added water helps distribute the conditioner more evenly, while the leave-in provides the slip needed to detangle before layering your styling products.
